What Is This

What is sleep I guess it doesn’t keep me awake,
What is patience when there is nothing I can take,
What is food when I never like to eat,
What are shoes when I prefer to cut up my feet,
What is a chair if I’m never willing to sit,
What is a portion if I don’t want a little bit,
What is a book if I really hate to read,
What is a plant if I only want the seed,
What is my lack of money if I’m a rich man at heart,
How far is A from B cause my car won’t seem to start,
I guess it takes two to tango so it wasn’t the chicken before the egg,
But in that case who was hatched if there was nothing to be laid,
I heard that you don’t like me so I guess we can’t be friends,
But what would become of actors if they forgot how to pretend,
What are these letters that I’m choosing to make all of these lines,
What are the sounds that I am using to make this whole thing rhyme,
Does this even make sense to you how can we know what’s right,
What if we were meant to wake only for the night,
I think we don’t know what we think we know because how do we know for sure,
Or maybe this place isn’t what we think maybe it’s all just false allure.
